Hi. I like Photoshop very much for doing all I want for an image, but I am getting very ticked off at something that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. No google search or search anywhere comes up with a solution to this.
Every time I try to open a normal image file like a simple jpg or other simple image file by using Open Recent, so I don’t have to search for the file all over again, it tells me it’s not a valid photoshop document. The files open fine in everything else, and even already opened fine in PS (kinda WHY it’s in the Open Recent list), so it is NOT a problem with the file. I had JUST dragged and dropped a normal jpg image into PS a minute ago just to make it screw up reopening it again, and low and behold, the file I just dragged into PS that it opened perfectly fine suddenly isn’t a valid photoshop document when I go to it 5 seconds later after closing it and trying to open it in the Open Recent list.
ANY file that ISN’T a .psd will not open in that list until I go FIND the file again using "Open…". This is extremely annoying when I have some files that are only a single number in difference saved from website (file_00800769543.jpg), and when I have hundreds to look through.
Again, the files open FINE with "Open…", I DID NOT do any editing and saving, just viewing, and yet when I open Photoshop the next day, I have to find every file I want open all over again because Photoshop suddenly declares the files it already had open as invalid for no reason. I can’t describe it any clearer than that, so I hope someone can help find out why I have to keep finding perfectly fine files when I COULD be using the "Open Recent.." list to get back to work quickly.
Thank you in advance. Sorry I sound upset, but you would be too after wasting hours trying to find a solution to a problem that shouldn’t exist.
